[QUOTE="Cowdirt, post: 701599, member: 2609"] Recently my cousin with a serious illness (now deceased) and his wife sold their farm and cattle to a young couple from NJ. My cousin had a cattle manager who handled the cattle during his illness. Part of the agreement when the cattle changed hands was that the manager would continue to help the young couple for some time period until they learned a bit about cattle. Well as you might expect, one of the couple was in to the petting thing. Came time to sell some of the calves and unbeknownst to the cattle manager, he loaded the pet with the other calves and headed to the salebarn, 60mi. away. That evening the pettor found that the petee had been sold. The couple headed to the salebarn hoping to get the pet back before it took the long ride to the midwest feedlots. They were unsuccessful. After examining their sales record, the salebarn people informed the couple that the pet would be at one of two locations. The couple rented a trailer and headed to the midwest. They eventually were successful in finding the pet in Nebraska. They cut a deal with the new owner and headed back to Middle TN with the lucky calf. You folks between TN and the Midwest be alert for trucks with a TN license plate towing an empty trailer; there's some real crazy people on the road. [/QUOTE]
